YELLOWSTONE PAhK.
Its Most Remarkable Attraction the HurrI

A Norris Geyser basin, Montana, cor
respondent of the st. Paul Pioneer Press
writes
II am now at the Norris Geyser basin
on my second round of the National
Park. Last week Jsbez Gilpin, of Leeds,
England, was the first tourist TO reach
the upper geyser basin in 1887 But
Frank Vincent, Jr., of New York city, and
W. d. Rosenberg, of Philadelphia, will
anticipate all in reaching the grand
| canyon. The most wonderful of all the
the wonders at the Norris basin is known
as the hurricane geyser. 1t is a recent
outbreak, scarcely year old. The crater
about twenty by thirty feet, and is in
| closed by sollc wall of rock about ten
feet in depth, TO the surface of the water,
and no one can tell how far below this
rocky Enclosure extends. Several years
ago we could SIT on the end of this rock
RIB and watch the torrid waves run down
the Enclosure, strike the wall beneath our
feet, and sink into the earth to resppear
! at the upper end with undiminishe ed
force. Now eight days later we fluid that
the boiling flood shoots out over the the
wall where we formerly sat.
August Kelly, who has been the only
resident of this basin during the winter,
informs me that he noticed marked
change In the quality of water discharged
aud the energy displayed at this basin
after the earthquakes of December .,
1856. The hurricane presents the APP
pearance of revolving liquid globe.
There is huge boulder in the center of
the quadrangular crater, over which tho
water dashes With such force as to give it
the appearance of an immense wheel in
perpetual motion. The intense heat may
be realized in measure, when it is stated
that the rocks ten feet from the edge are
so hot that the naked hand can only be
held on them but for an instant. The
water is turbid and bears evid noe of the
fact that the subterranean chambers ar o
being enlarged. They are evidently alb
sorbing the material that has been dis
charged at other geysers. The Monarch
geyser, formerly the greatest OF tn
basin, is now a second class geyser, of
very irregular habits. Visitors sit by it
for hours, and often leave without wit
Messing an eruption. But the hurricane.
like the Black Warrior of the Ebony
basin, never rests and consequently never
disappoints the wonder seeker.
Capt. M. Harris, superintendent of the
park is pursuing judicious course in
furnishing all parties who leave Nam
mouth hot springs to make the tour of
the park with printed copy of the
rules and regulations published by the
secretary of the interior regarding the
preservation of timber from forest fires,
and objects of interest from mutilation
by specimen hunters.
In this way NO one can complain of
not knowing what these rules are, and if
a violation occurs the trespasser must
take the consequences.

A Rascally Old Beggar.

Says dispatch from Washington
Court House, Ohio:
Another incident illustrating the de-
ceitfulness of the average professional
beggar mas recently come to light at the
county infrmary. An old tramp who
claimed to be "a years of age and unable
TO speak anything bat the German Ian
guage, begged about town several days,
at one place a purse of several dollars
being made up for him by the bystanders.
Finally, the old man applied TO the town
ship trustees for help, and he was sent 10
the infmary. Supt. Wilson says he sus-
pected the old man as being fraud, aud
made up his mind 10 search him. From
one pocket was taken an old soiled enVel-
ope, which contained certificate OF de-
post in a bank of Columbus, o., OF $40
Besides this the old miser had consider
able cash on hand, and was too sungy to
buy himself anything to eat. he was
soon dismissed from the infrmery.

Beware of Thieves.

ANY one who has ever rode mile in one
of the Central Pacific Railroad cars must
have noticed the little notice neatly
printed, framed and placed UP conspicu-
ously in the end of the car, warning the
passengers against three-card monte men
and other games. Beware, or you will
surely be robbed" That notice no doubt
has saved many poor immigrant from
losing his money. 1t would hardly seem
possible that in this enlightened age, and
in the Capital city of the State of Califor-
mia that it would be necessary to record
the fact that the light fingered gentry that
used to waylay the emigrant at Battle
Mountain aud Winnemucca had came to
Sacramento and laid seige to the city, but
such is the case. On Saturday three of
those individuals who have stand not IN
like that which supports the amateur pho
tographic camera were found inside Agri-
cultural Park, fleeing the grangers at what
is called the shell game. They were imme-
diately elected by order of the Directors,
and the Society's police notified to ares.
them if they attempted their rob-
bling game again inside the park. The
game consists of hiding pea under one
of three small shells, and allowing the
Granger to guess which one it is under, for
$40 guess. The Granger sees it put under
a shell, the shell is moved around, but he
does not lose sight of it, and he planks up
his money, lifts the shell, but the latter has
disappeared. 1t is simply slight-of-hand
trick, complete rob. and whoever PUTS
down his money parts with it without a
ghost OF show of winning. 1t is game
that does not rise to the dignity of
gambling-it is nothing more nor
less than highway robbery. On Satur-
day four of those stands, surrounded
by half dozen cappers, each occupied
prominent positions on Twentieth street
from H to the main entrance of Agrcultu-
raj Park, in plain view of all passers-by,
who were solicited to try their luck at $40
and $40 guess. 1t is known that some of
them thus took in over 81 900 each, and
still they were permitted to continue to rob
the unwary and unsophisticated. At noon
Saturday the Directors, hearing of this
brazen piece of business, held special
meeting, and decided bv unanimous vote
to summons Chief of Police Dillman to the
Park to lay the matter before him, and if
he did not arrest the thieves and take them
to the lookup that they would prefer
charges against him. The Chief was sent
for, and it is not likely that these robbers
will be permitted to carry on their nefarious
business at the entrance to the Park to.

Stolen Money Recovered.

Albert Howell was arrested by officers
Farrell and Rider on Saturday for grand
larceny. He appeared at the station-house
accompanied by another man, who said he
had been robbed of SIG. Howell also
claimed that he had been robbed, losing 81.
The story was that they had gone below +
street, found q good place and had a sleep,
and while they slept some one robbed
them. Officer Farrell saw that the SIG
man, who was feeling very blue, suspected
his companion of having robbed him, and
he assured Howell that he had better re-
turn the money and save trouble. After
some dehials and assertions that he was of
good family and not person who would
steal, Howell finally weakened and took
the officers to the place where he had con-
cealed the SIG. The money was recovered,
and a charge of grand larceny entered
aginst Howell, who admits his guilt, but
declares that when he is "out of this
scrape" he will never do dishonest act
again.
